The basic idea that makes our democracy work is being attacked by republicans. Where are our Democrat political voices?

Carlglo Stupid question He will have to accept the loss just like trumpie - refusal to is just to grift the ignorant!

I guess we can expect that with all elections now. The precedent has been set.

He won’t do shit.

idiot

Is this how all shriveled up, worn out hollow shells of their former selves political parties die off? Whimpering? Whining, crying like infants in need of a change? Makes sense for this lot I just hope they can speed it up a bit.

No Republican ever will after Trump's antics.

Well, good thing it’s not up to him.

Wow that seems so familiar, no, wait, arrrrgggghhhh

We heard that before 🤷🏻‍♂️

Oh boy. What a waste of energy and time these people are. No value add

I will be sorely disappointed if news channels play Larry Elders' denial lie over and over again. For every time he gets on media there should be an elections official or expert to real time check him. Media, don't be played by that con man. Don't fuel his madness.

Big baby, following in Trump’s footprints😖

Another mini trump loser.

Sounds familiar…can we not have one day without a headache?!?!

of course not

Newsom slams GOP, while Elder targets governor's wife as recall campaign closesGov. Gavin Newsom and Republican front-runner Larry Elder fanned out across L.A. on Sunday to make their final push to voters in California's recall election. Is Elder TRYING to make his image worse? Or is he just playing book tour? He sure as hell is not qualified to govern California. Newsom’s wife was shilling to protect Harvey Weinstein from rape charges because he was a big donor. But she’s not governor. Judge Gavin’s own elitist rich kid do nothing horribleness on its own. Not much here that reflects poorly on either Newsom or his wife. Rose McGowan needs more time with a therapist to deal with her abuse - supporting Elder is nuts.

Rose McGowan appeared with Larry Elder and accused Gov. Gavin Newsom's wife of trying to silence her about Harvey WeinsteinActivist and actor Rose McGowan appeared alongside California gubernatorial candidate Larry Elder at a press conference on Sunday, two days before the state's recall election. 'Activist'. That's all you got? Good luck, talk-show host. Sorry, this is a deeply disturbed woman. Plus, after all the crazy s*** Larry Elder has said and done, who says “that’s my guy”? It’s not helping her case. I don't get this woman. Is she sane, not sane? Is she on drugs or sober?
